Whether or not you have been here before, once you visit Nantucket, you will come again. Call it charm, call it magic, Nantucket is a vacationer's paradise, thirty miles at sea.

Management needs to be more organized

The house was nice (although not particularly clean) but I am not happy with some of the check-out procedures, for instance:

"There will be a minimum charge of $120.00 if furniture must be moved back into place or the house is left dirty."

--Since the house hasn't even met my definition of clean to start with, what do they mean by "dirty"? I.e. Spider webs/dead bugs in several places; something dripped down the front of the coffee table by previous guests;

"Upon check-out please start the dishwasher with any dirty dishes."

"Organize the trash and recycling (per instructions on other side of page) and bring bags to the outside bins."

--I don't mind organizing the recycling, but, again, instead of it being the cleaning people's responsibility, the 'guest' is expected to take out the trash...what exactly are these people paid to do???

"Strip all beds of sheets and place the sheets and used towels on the floor of the room they came in."

--And what are the cleaning people for? I realize this is a house, but as I am the guest, should I really be having to strip beds?

Really needed more instructions for appliances and thermostat

One 2-sided sheet of paper, handed out with the keys, about what guests are required to do, but no instructions on how to do them

For instance under "Checkout Procedures:

"Set the heat to 50 degrees..."

--But I couldn't figure out how and no instructions anywhere.

--Washer/dryer are included but they are NOT full size, it is a stacked combo washer/dryer, and AGAIN NO instructions on how to operate! Took us 15 minutes of trying different settings before we learned that the water to the washer wasn't on!

Other than that Nantucket was fun, weather was great for early October, location of the house worked out to get us away from the crowds!

Great cottage in Madakat!

Three bedroom home; Master had a queen size bed (very squeaky) with bathroom. The bathroom was pretty small, and only a stand-up shower. The fan in Master Bathroom squeals at such a high pitch, it along with the light, had to stay off. The second room had two twin size beds and was great. The third room had two bunk beds and a window. This room got very hot at night (and it was only 50 degrees outside at night), that we had to make sure the one window was open, fan taken off the floor and plugged in, and door stayed opened so it wasn't so hot in there. Second bathroom was great size with laundry inside, and full size tub. Kitchen / Living area was spacious and had everything. The yard was just what we were looking for... space. Green everywhere, bunnies hoping around, and kids could just go outside and throw the baseball around when we were home. Pick up of the key, and drop of was wonderful, easy to find, and easy to find the house (even in the fog). Ants in the house; they were trying to take care of by some ant traps, probably to be expected of the area. Overall we loved staying here, and working with Peter! He was fabulous!
